AN EDITORS ADVENTURE.
Atlanta Constitution.

Larry Gannt, of the Runner Wotch- man, went to Gainesville to deliver an agriculture lecture. The town was crowded with visitors, and he was told that he could not find accomoda- tion at the Johnson House.
 He arrived quite late at night. Sev- eral men were around the register, and he awaited his turn to enter his name. The man who held the book was interrupted for a moment, and turned around to speak to one of the party of which he was member.
 Can't wrote his name in the book, and seeing a friend, turned to two chairs around the stove for chat.
 The man who held the book, having finished the conversation, again pro- ceeded to the registration of his party, and not noticing Gantt's signature, wrote his names immediately follow ing, which, when finished, he enclose in a bracket, and wrote "UE: /. states
 After awhile the editor, being sleepy, approached the clerk, and dbhCl lO Dc SuOW II HIS EOOIIl.
 "Your name, sir?" he was asked.
 "There, sir" he replied, placing his finger on his hieroglyphical scrawl.
 "You can't % till your guard comes for you,' said the clerk.
 "Till my guard comes? What do you mean, sir2" exclaimed Can't.
 "Your guard said IT. .4 n in moment. So just keep quiet"
 eff I can't get my room, Pll leave your house, and I am tired of this foolishness," thundered Can't, moving toward the door.
 "Hold up! Halt! !" yelled the clerk, pistol in hand. "Your guard told me to watch you men till his return, and 1 am just the man to do it." and with that he leveled his pistol at the face of the irate and astonished editor, who, thinking he had met lunatic, calmed down.
 "That's fine scrape you boys have got into," remarked the clerk, after he had laid aside his shooter.
 "What scrape, and what boys?" said Can't.
 "Oh, have had that game played on me before, but the dodge won't work this time," responded the watch ful knight of the diamond pin. of you all can't make whisky without paying your license, you ought to be caught"
 "Whisky! License! What are you talking about, man?" said Can't 'I don't know anything about making whisky nor what you are raving about, and l want to go."
 "rhat's the same old story, but it won't work. l hope you'll get off light, when you get before Judge New man ill Atlanta, but you might as well own up. Did they catch all seven of you together?" asked-~the clerk f~,>.-a..
 What seven?"
 "Why, these seven here on the reg ister with your name," answered the deputy guard, pointing to the brack- eted names on the book.
 "Do you take mo for an illicit dis tiller?" exclaimed Can't.
 Just then friend came in and iden- titied him, whereupon he was released by the clerk, who said: "Well, sir, there ain't single unoccupied room in the house; but, if you'll take it. Pll give you mine, if you won't say any thing about what's happened"
